2020年7月8日 · Mangrove stands provide significant flood protection in some coastal areas by protecting landward areas from wave impacts. Human alteration of mangrove stands within V Zones is prohibited unless it can be demonstrated that …

Mangrove forests are the only woody halophytes that live in salt water along the world's subtropical and tropical coastlines. Mangroves are one of the most productive and ecologically important ecosystems on earth. The rates of primary production of mangroves equal those of tropical humid evergreen forests and coral reefs.

2020年6月1日 · Mangrove stands showed structural development from the pioneer to mature stage from seaward to landward in accretion sites. Seaward erosion sites exhibited small scale disturbances, providing openings for species to invade, resulting in mosaic patterns of stands over mangrove forests affected by timescale and rate of erosion.

2022年12月1日 · Stand structure, species composition, and biomass stocks in the young mangrove plantation have been investigated in terms of evaluating the potential. The effects of stand variables on belowground root carbon stocks have also been investigated. Stand structure and root biomass stocks vary significantly along with riverward and landward sites.

2023年12月5日 · We addressed the following questions (1) How do carbon stocks vary among different species and above- and below-ground components? (2) How do stand structure, species diversity and functional traits affect above- and below-ground carbon stocks separately and jointly in the Sundarbans mangrove forest?

2021年7月15日 · The present research developed a novel methodological framework to differentiate natural mangrove stands (i.e., original), from stands which were planted and stands naturally established after interaction between planted and non-planted stands (e.g., through pollination, i.e., non-original).

Mangrove stands provide significant flood protection in some coastal areas by protecting landward areas from wave impacts. Human alteration of mangrove stands within V Zones is prohibited unless it can be demonstrated that such alteration will not increase potential flood damage.”

In mangroves, soil water salinity and the correspond-ing osmotic potential are the main drivers of plant water supply. Below-ground processes thus may be key for the structure and dynamics of...

2021年7月23日 · WARC Researchers are comparing tree and root growth, soil CO2 flux, and surface elevation change between fertilized and unfertilized mangrove forests to assess the potential impact of increased nutrient loading and to help rate mangrove stand vulnerability.

Through Bayesian logistic models compiled from 40 years of data and built from 684 planted mangrove stands worldwide, we found that biomass C stock culminated at 71 to 73% to that of intact stands ~20 years after planting.
